Thanks for a wonderful Jobim tribute today I really appreciate it.
By the way, I have related question about the birth of modern brazilian jazz here in the US. Were there any feature length documentaries about this subject, that were either produced, here in the US or in Brazil? I haven't been able to find any answers to this on the web.
